The Hortence clock is more than a timekeeper; it is a pure line drawn in space. A true manifesto of contemporary design, it embodies the most refined vision of the UTINAM Besançon manufacture.

While the Pop Up model focuses on a bold three-dimensional structure, Hortence prioritizes finesse and lightness. Its slender silhouette, characterized by absolute sobriety, is designed to integrate seamlessly into the most demanding interiors, whether ultra-modern or classic.
Patented Mechanical Movement: Like all of Philippe Lebru’s creations, Hortence beats to the rhythm of a manufacture mechanical movement, award-winning for its technical innovation.
Spectacular Pendulum: Its long, elegant pendulum oscillates with a soothing regularity, transforming the passage of time into a visual choreography.
Premium Materials: Crafted from high-precision steel and metals with impeccable finishes (available in various finishes such as deep black, chrome, gold, or vibrant custom colors).
Total Transparency: The absence of a traditional cabinet allows for an unobstructed view of the escapement and gears, stripping the "heart of the machine" bare.
Unlike the massive grandfather clocks of the past, Hortence "breathes." It occupies space without cluttering it. It is the ideal piece for those seeking:
An Artistic Presence: A kinetic sculpture that captures attention through grace rather than bulk.
Visual Serenity: A Zen-like design that brings immediate calm to a living space or an executive office.
Reimagined Heritage: The craftsmanship of the Jura Arc projected into the 21st century.
"Hortence is a punctuation mark—a bridge between the art of living and mechanical precision."
